Muwatta Malik #1751
The Decree
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ الْيَمَانِيِّ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَدْرَكْتُ نَاسًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُونَ كُلُّ شَىْءٍ بِقَدَرٍ . قَالَ طَاوُسٌ وَسَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" كُلُّ شَىْءٍ بِقَدَرٍ حَتَّى الْعَجْزِ وَالْكَيْسِ أَوِ الْكَيْسِ وَالْعَجْزِ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ziyad ibn Sad from Amr ibn
Muslim that Tawus al-Yamani said, "I found some of the companions of
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
saying 'Everything is by decree.' " Tawus added, "I heard Abdullah ibn
Umar say that The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace. said, 'Everything is by decree - even incapacity and
ability,' (or 'ability and incapacity')."
